ACI Foundation Scholarships and Fellowships

The ACI Foundation offers about 50 awards each year to high-potential students in concrete-related degree programs: scholarships carry a $5,000 educational stipend for tuition, residence, books, and materials, while fellowships carry a $10,000 stipend plus paid travel to two ACI Concrete Conventions. Eligible fields include civil and structural engineering, construction management, architecture, and materials.

Applicants must be full-time students enrolled in a concrete-related degree program during the award year and proficient in English. Fellowship applicants must attend an accredited institution in the United States or Canada. Applications require a resume, a 500-word essay on interest in a concrete industry career, official transcripts, and two endorsements, one from an ACI member.

Applications for the 2027–2028 academic year are open now and close November 1, 2026. Fellowship finalists interview at the spring ACI Convention.
